Filmed in Australia


Was filming a US show in Oz fairly common twenty-years ago? The fake American accents are a constant source of hilarity.

I don't know about Australia specifically, but it was the result of cheap actors and Government investment that plenty of Syndicated shows taped outside of the US

Hercules and Xena were famously shot in New Zealand
- as were several of the Raimi/Tapert projects

Beastmaster and Doyle's Lost World were in Australia

Sinbad was South Africa
- SAF3, a recent Baywatch-esque show filmed there as recently as 2014)

Highlander: The Series was one of the first in Vancouver (while doing half the Series in France)
- Mutant X, Cobra and countless others followed in BC (even 'normal' shows are opting for BC these days to save money)

TNT's Robin Hood was in Eastern Europe if I recall

Conan was shot in Mexico

Relic Hunter, Kung Fu Legend Continues and Witchblade were out of Toronto

Painkiller Jane (Syfy 2007) was filmed in Hungary

Lonesome Dove filmed in Alberta
